Elk Creek — Even with star hitter Clair Crites sidelined with illness, the Elks dropped the Lumberjacks Thursday night, 3-1.

The match went to four games as Elk Creek won the first game 25-18, losing the second game 22-25.

They came back, though, to win the next two games, 25-16 and 25-11.

Thanks go to great serving from Meri Burt, #25, who happens to lead the entire United States in aces per game, and Liana Langford, #11, who contributed seven aces to Thursday's match. The Elks are six wins and three losses for the season.

The Elks host Herlong Tuesday.
